About Interac
Founded in 1984, Interac was created to give Canadians better access to their money. Then, in 2018, Interac Corp. was formed by merging with Acxsys Corporation to combine the new company’s 2 main services: Interac Debit and Interac e-Transfer.
The Interac Debit solution allows for secure, contactless payment for various everyday purchases. Using your debit card or via its smartphone application, it has never been easier to pay or bet online. Canada’s largest banks accept payments via Interac.
Interac Debit also works as a mobile wallet as you can pay with your phone via Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay by linking your debit card to your e-Wallet. The other main function is called Interac e-Transfer: it allows you to send funds anywhere in the world in a very fast way.
